“…With the popularization of VR devices and applications, people have more opportunities for interacting with others in VR environments. Various devices and algorithms have introduced haptic feedback in VR in addition to audiovisual feedback ( Van Erp and Toet, 2015;Huisman, 2016;Zenner and Kruger, 2017;Whitmire et al, 2018;Preechayasomboon and Rombokas, 2021;Kruijff et al, 2022;Kudry and Cohen, 2022;Nunez et al, 2022;Shell et al, 2022;Villa et al, 2022). Due to such devices and algorithms, humans are more often haptically interacting with virtual characters, and human behavior during touch interactions in VR is being actively studied (Bailenson and Yee, 2008;Huisman et al, 2014;Hoppe et al, 2020;Sykownik and Masuch, 2020;Gallace and Girondini, 2022).…”
